I think we should at least settle this question; Can an hypothesis,
theory, principle, claim or statement be scientific if it is not

Well that's easy.

Hypothesis: Yes. Hypotheses can be anything.
Theory: Yes. It's just the hypothesis that fits the data best.
Principle: Not part of scientific method.
Statement: Ditto.
